Dear all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
in its last session the Gentoo council decided that 30 days from now the |
| 4 |
entire profile tree will be updated to require EAPI=5 support. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
For all non-deprecated profiles this requirement has already been in place for |
| 7 |
over one year. If you have updated your system at any point during the last |
| 8 |
year, followed the instructions in the profile deprecation warnings (which |
| 9 |
cannot really easily be overlooked), and are running an up-to-date portage |
| 10 |
version, there is absolutely nothing that you need to do now. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
If you are running an installation that has not been updated for more than a |
| 13 |
year, you have to update your portage version to current stable now, and |
| 14 |
afterwards switch to a non-deprecated profile. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The deprecated 10.0 profiles will be removed after the update. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Best, Andreas |
